BTDT moms

Did your baby (babies) prefer the swing or the bouncer? Or did they love both? Or could care less about either.

We live in a 1 bedroom above my parents. Space is going to be tight. Everyone raves about having a swing when they are little, so I'm thinking maybe I'll just keep the SnugaBunny swing downstairs in my parents house.

I knwo all babies are different, but I'm trying to figure out if I need the swing and the bouncer and the jumper. Thanks!

Re: BTDT moms

For us, the swing was a MUST have. She LOVED it! Napped in it, soothed her when she was cranky, place to put her safely when I had to do stuff in the house. Had it until she was literally falling out of it at like 8 months old!

The bouncer she really did not care for that much.
Boring!

Jumper is not until later on- 4 or 5 months I'd say

Definitely the swing! DD is 1 year and she still naps in it. It was a total lifesaver. Definitely try and get a plug in or you will go through matteries like crazy. We have the fisher price ocean wonders. You can switch it around and it swings either front to back or side to side.

Swing was a must, he loved it. They have very small ones, and very small bouncers because you just never know!

DS sisn't like the swing or the bouncer. The only thing her loved was the FP Rock-n-play sleeper.


He also loved his exersaucer and the jumperooo at Daycare until he really got the hang of craweling which was about 6 months.

The swing for the first two months. For some reason it would calm him down when he was crying. He also took a lot of naps in it. I LOVED that thing!! Now hes in it 10 minutes at best before he wants out. He hated the bouncer. I also have the Mama Roo... he could take or leave that.

We couldn't have lived without the bouncer. He hated the swing until he was older (too big for the bouncer). It also takes up a lot less space.

At 3 weeks she doesn't love the swing (little lamb swing). It seems a little fast for her, but she looooves the bouncer (snug a bunny). I think in time shell start to like the swing more.

DS #1 Loved both! couldnt have lived without either.

DS #2 seems to dislike his bouncer, really he hates being on his back, so he only likes the swing if I prop him in it on his side.
